Almost three years ago, I tried Kpop Rice Flour Chicken for the first time via a delivery service. The name almost made me hesitate, but I’m glad I gave it a chance. They use rice flour to batter their chicken, making it a fantastic option for those who are gluten-free. However, be cautious as some sauces still contain gluten. Gluten-Free Options: Traditional Chicken Honey Garlic Chicken Chicken Gizzard Bossam Restaurant Atmosphere: The restaurant has the typical vibe of an older Korean establishment, featuring mostly booth seating, Kpop singers on soju advertisements, and Kpop music playing in the background. Food Ratings: Traditional Chicken: 8.7/10 The chicken is excellent, especially since I typically can’t have fried chicken. The honey garlic sauce is okay, but the traditional version is the best. Honey Garlic Chicken: 7.2/10 I ordered the sauce on the side because the garlic flavor can be overpowering. It’s good, but not my favorite. Bossam: 6.4/10 This isn’t the place to come for bossam. It’s fine as a side dish but lacks some staple pairings, particularly kimchi. Fried Gizzard: 9.1/10 The fried gizzard is outstanding. The rice flour gives it a crispy texture, and the combination of crunch and meatiness is perfect. Overall: Kpop Rice Flour Chicken is a must-visit for those with dietary restrictions like mine. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves fried chicken.

I recently went back to K-Pop Chicken with my cousins after about a year, hoping maybe the service experience would be different this time, but unfortunately it felt exactly the same. The food is honestly really good. The chicken is crispy and well made, and one of our favorite dishes is the rice cakes, which we usually order two of because we enjoy sharing them. This time again, the staff member — who I believe may be the only one working there most of the time — kept insisting that one plate was enough for us. I understand suggestions, but if we want two plates, we should be able to order two without feeling questioned about it. The place was also almost empty when we arrived around 8pm, and they close at 1am, so it felt uncomfortable being rushed the entire time. As soon as we sat down, we were pushed to order quickly, and throughout the meal there was constant staring. The moment it looked like we were almost done eating, the bill was brought out even though we were considering ordering more drinks and staying a bit longer. I don’t know if it’s just us experiencing this, but it genuinely makes the atmosphere uncomfortable. I don’t want to assume anything, especially since the area has a large Latino community, but as a Latino group it did make us wonder if we were being treated differently compared to other customers. It’s unfortunate because the food itself is really good. I also noticed signs about new ownership, so hopefully there are some positive changes to the service in the future because I’d love to enjoy the place without feeling rushed every visit.
